This is my second time reading this book. The first time I read this book, I was in high school. This time I read it aloud to my children who are 8 and 9 years old. They really enjoyed the book. We did spend a lot of time pausing in the reading to answer questions about antiquated words and phrases. The English language has changed so much since Dickens' time!! I can't believe the expressions that have fallen off our radar.
We had a fun time reading this in preparation for Christmas. I hope that the message of the book was clear for my children even if the old-fashioned wording made it hard to see.
